With the close of polls, now the three candidates vying for the Laguna Hills City Council wait to see who the top two vote-getters will be.
Initial results from early voting released shortly after the close of polls Tuesday night had Jared Mathis and incumbent Don Caskey out to an early lead.
See the latest election results.
Caskey, a retired architect, was elected in 2022 to complete a two-year term on the council. Now he’s hoping voters have awarded him a full four-year term.
Challenging him are Neel Patel, a director of actuarial and analytics, and Mathis, CEO of the Moulton Company.
Mathis has deep roots in Laguna Hills. His great-grandparents, Lewis and Nellie Gail Moulton, made their home there in 1874.
Patel has served on the city’s Traffic Commission.
